Nice work! Love the embedded seashells! What is that last object, the round thing with a pole in the middle?

Carol - great variety of work! I hope you will keep sharing photos.
How did you get that great color for the bowl with the shells?
I would also love to hear more about the table with the daisy motif.
Thanks, Laura

Kim Thanks for your comments and the last item with the pole in it is the base for the totem "beads" I am wanting to do if the weather ever cools off enough to play again.
I have been wondering if since it's tufa and not mainly cement, if the weather would effect the tufa as much.... Much more heat and I might be trying just to get an idea if it would work or not.
Laura Thank you for the comments and interest. The big bowl color is partially the direction of the sun and also the fact that I hadn't "brushed/washed" the bowl yet, I think. After washing it-it pretty much looks like the base of the totem. I know it's hard to tell because I had to reduce the size of the pictures but in the base and the bowl I used kind of like river rock (store bought smooth rocks that I had had for a while and finally figured out a use for them) The trough does have shells on it.
Thanks for looking
Carol :o)

Thank You Debbie and Cindy.. I don't feel I have accomplished much compared to what everyone else has done and posted. But it sure is fun learning.
